The Expendables 3 Officially Rated PG-13

Despite the previous two films in the series brandishing an "R," The Expendables 3 has officially received a PG-13 rating from the MPAA for "violence including intense sustained gun battles and fight scenes, and for language." The first film was rated R for “strong action and bloody violence throughout, and for some language,” while the second film was rated R for “strong bloody violence throughout.”

In The Expendables 3, Barney (Stallone), Christmas (Statham) and the rest of the team comes face-to-face with Conrad Stonebanks (Gibson), who years ago co-founded The Expendables with Barney. Stonebanks subsequently became a ruthless arms trader and someone who Barney was forced to kill… or so he thought. Stonebanks, who eluded death once before, now is making it his mission to end The Expendables — but Barney has other plans. Barney decides that he has to fight old blood with new blood, and brings in a new era of Expendables team members, recruiting individuals who are younger, faster and more tech-savvy. The latest mission becomes a clash of classic old-school style versus high-tech expertise in the Expendables’ most personal battle yet.
